摘要
Since the first discovery of footprints in Guangyuan of Sichuan Province in 1943, more than 15 localities of dinosaur foot- prints have been found in Sichuan Basin. Up to now, 20 genera and 24 species of dinosaur footprints were named in Sichuan Basin. The dinosaur footprints from Sichuan Basin were rich, widely distributed and well preserved, in which Pengxianpus clfengensis of Late Triassic from Pengxian County, Sichuan Province was the earliest dinosaur footprint in China and it was of very important academic val- ue in studying the evolution, distribution, living habits of dinosaurs in Sichuan Basin and even in China. The geological periods from Late Triassic to Early Jurassic were the very important periods in the origin and evolution of dinosaurs in China. The study of the dino- saur footprints during Late Triassic and Early Jurassic from Sichuan Basin in the future should be enhanced.
